Chapter 46 Xiao Zhao Departs
Gu Qianbei knew more than Bai Zhantang, knowing that the golden silk armor was involved in many things, including the infamous Plum Blossom Bandit, and was also the beginning of the Little Li Flying Dagger story.
Now it seems that this beginning is about to start.
And they seem to have been dragged into this.
Although the impact is not severe, it may still have an effect on the future.
"This world of martial arts is truly complex."
In the end, Gu Qianbei could only sigh like this.
Since the situation didn't affect him for the time being, he didn't bother to think about it anymore.
Fortunately, the chase has come to an end.
the next day.
Officer Xing brought news that with the fall of the five masters, no one dared to accept the bounty on Guo Furong's head in the black market.
Most importantly, someone in the black market has discovered that Guo Furong is the only daughter of Guo Juxia, and those who were previously blinded by greed have immediately come to their senses.
joke.
How could you dare accept such a reward?
No wonder all five masters died.
It is said that Shangguan Yundun was killed by Lu Xiaofeng at the request of Guo Juxia.
For a time, this exorbitant reward became something no one cared about.
Black Wind Stronghold quickly withdrew the bounty.
Because they realized they had been tricked.
The person who attacked their mountain stronghold was not Guo Furong at all, but Yang Huilan.
Soon, the Black Wind Stronghold's bounty target became Yang Huilan.
This reignited enthusiasm in the black market.
It remains to be seen whether Yang Huilan can escape the pursuit of the underworld assassins.
Even if they escape, they'll probably be badly hurt.
Of course, these are things to follow.
After everything was settled, Gu Qianbei finally had some free time.
On this day, Gu Qianbei was sitting in a rocking chair in Qianchou Si to relieve his boredom when he suddenly thought of something and opened his eyes abruptly.
"That's strange. I had arranged a time with Xiao Zhao beforehand. She was supposed to come today to get used to the management of the tavern, so that she could prepare for guarding it later."
Why hasn't anyone arrived yet, even though it's already afternoon?
Knowing Xiao Zhao's personality, she shouldn't break her promise. Could something have happened?
Thinking of this, Gu Qianbei immediately got up and went to the Ge family.
The Ge family.
"Aunt Ge, where's Xiao Zhao?"
As soon as Gu Qianbei arrived at the Ge family home, she encountered Aunt Ge the Third and immediately asked her questions.
"Manager Gu, I was just about to look for you, but I didn't expect you to come here by yourself."
"Looking for me? What's wrong? Did something happen to Xiao Zhao?"
Gu Qianbei's expression changed.
Aunt Ge did not answer immediately, but instead took out a letter and handed it to Gu Qianbei.
"This is a letter Xiao Zhao left for you. Last night, Xiao Zhao's biological mother came and said she was going to take Xiao Zhao to do something very important."
My husband and I were reluctant, but she was her own mother, and we couldn't refuse her.
As Aunt Ge spoke, a hint of sadness appeared in her eyes.
After all, he had raised Xiao Zhao as his own daughter for several years, so their feelings for each other were naturally very deep.
Before leaving, Xiao Zhao knelt down before them, saying that she would come back to visit the two elders as soon as she finished her business.
But who knows how long that will take?
"Xiao Zhao was taken away by her biological mother?"
Gu Qianbei was startled upon hearing this. Could it be that Dai Qisi was going to take Xiao Zhao to Bright Peak to act as an undercover agent?
At that moment, Gu Qianbei opened the letter.
"Your Excellency's Appreciation:"
Please forgive Xiao Zhao for breaking her promise to you.
After my mother returned home, she summoned me to go with her on a long journey to save her life and accomplish something together.
If this succeeds, my daughter and I will never be separated again.
This was something Xiao Zhao did willingly, and she dared not let her mother down.
However, I am unable to guard the tavern for you, sir, thus breaking our previous agreement. I feel guilty and uneasy, and I hope you will forgive me.
She doesn't know when she'll return, but once the matter is settled, Xiao Zhao will definitely return to Qixia Town.
If, at that time, the young master still requires Xiao Zhao to fulfill this promise, Xiao Zhao will surely return to the lord and fulfill this vow.
Xiao Zhao bowed deeply, her robes folded.
at the same time.
On the official road.
Xiao Zhao had changed into an even more exaggerated ugly disguise and was sitting in the carriage.
An old woman sat beside her, her face full of wrinkles, but her eyes were extremely bright.
Xiao Zhao looked out at the mountain peaks through the car window.
That was Black Wind Ridge, the place where she and Gu Qianbei had shared beautiful memories.
"Young master should have seen my letter by now, right? I wonder if he'll be angry with me..."
Thinking about this, Xiao Zhao felt a little heavy-hearted.
Last night she wanted to say goodbye to Gu Qianbei in person, but Dai Qisi disagreed.
Xiao Zhao knew Dai Qisi's temper very well. If she showed too much concern for Gu Qianbei, Dai Qisi might take action against Gu Qianbei.
Therefore, Xiao Zhao had no choice but to give up in the end.
But how could the sorrow she was showing now escape Dai Qisi's notice?
"It seems there's a decent man in that small town of Qixia that Xiao Zhao is so interested in."
However, this was destined to be a futile effort.
What good men can come from a small town? And how could one be worthy of Xiao Zhao?
Once I master the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth, I will have leverage to negotiate with the Persian religion.
If she could return to the main sect, Xiao Zhao would be the Holy Maiden.
Then, why would a man be needed to match with her?
Dai Qisi already had many plans in mind, but the premise was to first obtain the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth mental technique so that the Persian religion would stop pursuing her.
Otherwise, she would still have to live in constant fear.
She had had enough of this kind of life.
"Xiao Zhao".
Dai Qisi suddenly spoke, and Xiao Zhao immediately snapped out of her reverie and looked over.
"Mother, what's wrong?"
"You are about to go undercover at Bright Peak, which will be a very difficult task."
For your safety and to help you complete your mission better, I will teach you some martial arts and more knowledge about the martial arts world.
You must study hard; these skills might save your life someday.
"OK."
Xiao Zhao nodded obediently, and Dai Qisi showed a satisfied expression.
A training program targeting Xiao Zhao is about to begin.
The words are divided into two parts.
Holding the letter, Gu Qianbei walked dejectedly through the streets of Qixia Town. The setting sun cast a long shadow on him.
"I never imagined that our last parting would be so long ago, and I don't know when we'll meet again. This world really doesn't give people time to prepare."
Gu Qianbei shook his head helplessly, revealing a bitter smile.
If I want to see Xiao Zhao again, I'll probably have to go to Bright Peak.
According to recent news from the martial arts world, the friction between the Ming Cult and the Emei Sect, under the leadership of Yang Xiao, is escalating and is nearing an irreconcilable point.
It seems the siege of Bright Peak by the six major sects will take place in a year or two.
If he wanted to go to Bright Peak to find Xiao Zhao at that time, then he wouldn't have much time left.
To be effective in that situation, one would need at least the cultivation level of a Grandmaster.
For ordinary people, it is simply impossible to go from the Acquired Realm to the Grandmaster Realm in two years.
But for Gu Qianbei, it was not impossible.
"Let's hurry up and cultivate, improve our cultivation level as soon as possible, so we can venture out into the world."
Gu Qianbei instantly swept away his worries, his eyes filled with longing for the martial world.
